I assume you are talking about poly resin, not epoxy.  Epoxy does not need wax to make it sandable.  Now, if you are using poly resin, you cannot use it on esp foam cause it will melt.  Most SUP's are made with eps.

As for the answer on adding wax to poly resin, I'd suggest to go over to swaylocks.  They will have the answer.

yeah poly resin.looks like about 50 to 1 resin to wax additive ratio.i use mostly epoxy but sometimes need a  poly sanding coat.
